I agree something is definitely going on - Myself and another racer traveling through New Jersey last Saturday morning (in separate tow rigs) on the way to Maple Grove were pulled over on - I-78 by a trooper who was so aggressive in his tactics to pull us over almost sent some poor family in a minivan to early graves.

As I walked up to my buddies rig the trooper was going on about rigs over 10K pounds & prize money changing hands etc... I guess luckily & as a courtesy, me being retired NYPD, he ended up just warning us that this was going to be the "new way" - to get up to speed with the laws - and to get the rigs in compliance - you really are at their mercy. Its really a shame that this has to be so complicated its almost impossible to understand.
